10 Times Celebrities Threw Some Epic Shade

Khalea Underwood

Chaka Khan, the always-popping, show stopping musical mistress of the universe, was accused of throwing shade at Beyoncé – who love love LOVES Chaka – on the Essence Women in Hollywood red carpet recently. Like the classy lady she is, Chaka cleared the air on Twitter and now all is well. Though no offense was intended, I couldn’t help but think about all the glorious intentional shade that’s been tossed around throughout the years. I’m sure that being a celebrity has its competitive aspects. Like Diddy once said on an episode of “Making the Band 4,” there’s always someone in life trying to take your spot. These various A-listers might’ve felt threatened, or maybe their words were taken out of context. Or maybe they just wanted some attention. Who knows? All I know is that it’s entertaining. *grabs popcorn*
